2809 Alderwood Ave, Bellingham, WA 98225

Fully furnished, self-sustaining, 250sq ft studio on a quiet, wooded Birchwood lot. Private entry, patio area and parking. Cozy, efficiently designed space with bright, open, territorial views. (Think: "tiny house" living with your own private patio). Kitchenette with portable cook top, fridge, and microwave (no oven). Located in a quiet, residential section of the Birchwood neighborhood that has quick access to I-5 and public transportation. Easy biking distance to Squalicum beach and park, downtown B'ham, St. Joe's Hospital, and the colleges. ~5-10'-minute drive to WWU, Galbraith and other local favorite trails. The studio will be ideal for one, quiet individual who wants easy access to town amenities but also wants to return home to a peaceful space at the end of the day. The lot is shared with resident deer, songbirds, and the property owner (college professor) who lives in the main house, which is close to, but detached from, the studio. Studio residents have their own entry and patio that face west, while the owner has outdoor space facing south. Note that this is a small space with limited storage, so it's ideal for one person who values outdoor habitat and is comfortable living efficiently (limited storage, only one sink, and no on-site laundry, though the laundromat is close by). Utilities and wifi included. Pets considered on a case-by-case basis. $1300 per month, which includes all utilities and wifi. Available Dec. 20. Lease terms negotiable (short or long term lease available). First month's rent + damage deposit due at signing (plus pet deposit if applicable).
